National Wormhole Blog Hop

While I don't normally post on Thursdays, I couldn't resist this one. Thanks to a couple of my writer friends, Stephen Tremp, and  Laura Eno, I found out about this fun blog hop to honor Albert Einstein on the occasion of his birthday. What all the participants are doing is writing a short piece on where they would go, either back in time or forward, if they could jump in a wormhole. Probably the biggest challenge for most of us will be keeping the post to 100 words or less, but I'll give it a whirl.


Come with me into the past:

"Wyatt? Wyatt Earp?"

"Yes'm, and who are you?"

"Maryann. I just got here."

"How? Don't see no horse or carriage. An' the stage ain't due till tomorrow."

"I came through a wormhole."

"A what?"

"Uh, I'm guessing you wouldn't understand. But now that I'm here, would you teach me to shoot? I always wanted to be Annie Oakley."

"Who?"

"Annie Oakley. You know, the woman sharpshooter. And boy could she ride a horse at a full gallop. I haven't done that in too long."

"Never heard of her."

"Okay, but what about it? Will you teach me to shoot?"

"Meet me at the OK corral."
